Yeah, it's pretty random.
Check the NVnews Linux forum, there are quite a few people posting about 
this issue.

Apparently, in some cases the new driver will reject any vertical 
refresh frequency higher than approx. 70...75Hz or so, leading to screen 
flicker. In some cases it will totally disrupt the functioning of the 
display, as the card and the monitor do not agree anymore on a common 
set of parameters (resolution + refresh rate).
